Santa's face

Continuing in basketweave, I finished the left cheek with the 3 play of Splendor 1085 and then also did the lips with the same. The highlight stitches in the center are 3 ply of Splendor 938. The eyes and shading around the nose and under the cheeks is 3 ply of Splendor 925. The darker lines around the eyes are 3 ply of DMC 841. The darker lines around the blue area are 3 ply of DMC 849. The eye is worked with Splendor 3 ply of 800-white, 86l-light blue, 801 black and 858 dark blue.
